SHORT STAY

Students, Academics & Public

Summer Break: December 2026- February 2027

We have no availability for short-term stays for the summer period for outside guests this summer. Current residents and alumni can contact the office to see if there is a room available for them.

During the academic year (mid February – early December) the college is generally full. We sometime have a studio available for visiting academics and casual visitors. Please contact our office – admin@mandelbaum.usyd.edu.au 

Why stay at Mandelbaum?

Location – We’re right on campus, 3km from the city centre and just around the corner from cosmopolitan King St, Newtown. Walk to cafes, shops, gym, pool, markets, Carriageworks, night-life, USYD Business School and quick public transport to the CBD, Sydney Harbour and beaches.

Affordability – We’re a non-profit organisation. Our rates reflect that.

Size – Our boutique scale makes our service and support exceptional. You’ll feel at home and meet fellow students and travellers.

Quality – No need to compromise on comfort or security. Our rooms are modern, clean and private, with excellent amenities, in one of the safest buildings on campus.
